Voice Prompting ?

[s2ksimon]

does the 720 give voice prompts like or similar to the garmin prompts.

for example from my Garmin unit, I really enjoy these types of voice prompts where the distance is broken down and relayed to the driver in this manner.
".. in one kilometre, turn right.. "
".. in 250 metres, turn right.."
"..in 100 metres, turn right.."


does the Tom Tom 720 do this as well ?

Yes of course!
What does your 720 say when you have a course plotted?

I think he is just checking as he/she does not have the unit yet.

Just to reasure, it does.

AFAIK all of the TomTom units have voice prompting, if you want it turned on (it is, by default). The newer high end models, including the 720 even have text to speech, but you don't have as many voice options if you want to use TTS to read the street names, etc.

Ah I get it. The 720 is a great unit.
